Just now fashion appears to be taking a
rest. Shop windows and counters are de-
void of special attractions and merchants
are Offering unusual bargains in goods soon
to be out of season. There are plenty of
shoppers of course, but they all wear an
air of expectancy They seem to be wait
ing for something. Nor need they wait in
vain. Two weeks ago the millinerS re-
ceived their models from Paris, and
last week. in top stories and back

busily to work putting together the
hats and bonnetS that are to bloom i'll
the nearby spring. Dizziness reigns in the
shops, but go to the big wholesale millin-

hustle and life. Workwomen are fitting
to and fro laden with rich fabrics from the
looms that have long been busy-with flow

The bonnet factories are in operation. AL

lines of trimmed bonnets and hats, each

THE WORKING GIRLS WAY.
Some of the Unreasonable Things
She Expects in Marriage.


She Expects in Marriage.
The working girl is good in her way. but
it's forced way, says the National
Weekly. She is good. because it pays bet
ter to be good than to be bad, as long as she
must work for living. But she is seldom
content with her life, and is everlastingly
getting along She is always ready
to tumble into the matrimonial trap
for the simple reason that she be-
lieves that marriage will bring her relief
from her work and give her the freedom
she has always dreamed of, but as yet
never enjoyed. She is always ambitious to
catch man because she looks on him as
her savior. to deliver her to a great extent
from bondage. Nine working girls out Of
ten expect to live far easier lite after
marriage than before.
No matter who they marry, the dream
of an easier life is all the same, and if said
dream is not fully realized, then diScon-
tentment sets in worse than ever before and
the holy marriage state becomes a con-
densed hell of discord and strife. How do
L know all this? Well. from what the girl
herself sees fit to tell ME in her daily chit
chats, and from the appearance of a
good many broken homes all around
me. To a great extent hard work
hardens girls heart and she makes up her
mind at an early stage of life that some
body has got to make up for all the weary,
dreary days Of her struggling life, and this
part generally falls to the lot of the man
who becomes her husband. The marriage
state opens her eyes to new freedom, and
when the restraints once thrown off. good

for partner.
Fails he to supply her wants as to dress
or in her ideas of furnishing the home, then
the devil is to pay. True, he may be poor
and only earning small salary, yet ready
and willing at all times to give her the
bulk of what he receives, yet it does not
supply her wants; and though she can not
we'll throw the blame on him. she is not
satisfied with her state, and discOntentment
and diScOrd come together and be-
gin plans for future devlltry. To
be sure. this does not strike every working
girl. There are some who are born women
in the nObleSt and pureSt sense OF the word
woman. But where you are likely to meet
one girl who is destined to shine as wo-
man, wife and mother, you are more likely
to meet hundred who have an utter con-
tempt for the words woman and mother.
and only take the name of wife with the
expectation that by so doing they will no
longer be recognized as poor working
girls' but as ladies" This is tact that
is undeniable. admire the working-girl
who is not ashamed to be known as such,
and, though she may be ambitious to rise in
this world, expects to accomplish her pur-
poseby honest work. and expects to work
all through life, no matter what may turn
up. Such girl IS credit TO herself and
mankind, and is capable OF making earth a
paradise for all who have the pleasure OF
her acquaintance and friendship.

cradle cost for models Not all
of the millinery described as
Paris or Imported" comes across the.
water, though surely that is not much mat
ter, for it was in Paris that the models were
made. and the American limitations are
every bit as pretty as the original. The
most costly and prettiest bonnet which the
saleswOman took from the precious cabinet
was small capote of fancy braid, with
frame running into peak in front, this
filled in with face-trimming of f0rget-me
nots. Around the inside of the narrow brm
is boX-plaited No. l white ribbon, with
yellow picot edge. A large bunch OF for
get-me-nots, with fine green leaves,
loops of the ribbon and white aigrette
compose the trimming. Showing
between the ribbon loops and flowers are
two corners of white chantlly lace hand
kerchief, the remaining corners being
brought round to form the trimming on
the sides. Double ties of the ribbon com
plete the bonnet, which is one of the mas
terpieces of Nine. jesse, of the Boulevard
DIES Italens. On another bonnet from the
same establishment, Seventy-five small pins
are used. The crown is of fancy straw,
and the braids are held together with these
pins set half inch apart. The pins also
torn the trimming on the brim, and hold
the bows and flowers in place.
One of the very pretty bonnetS that had
beenmade in the house is of amber braid,

flown from its perch upon the fashionable
bonnet. On not one of the hundreds of
handsome chapeauX of this early spring is a
bird to be seen. The feathered songSterS

upon that mystery of mysteries, the origin

The colorS for all fashionable ChriSten-

syndicate this spring are eighty shades. Of
course it would be impossible to find new
shades, but not SO impossible to find twice
eighty new names for old shades, and that
appears TO be just what the syndicate man
has done. For instance, what he calls the
Charles X. shades are but the magentas,
rose, cherry and flame colors used years
ago. The Nile green shade so popular
now is the sea-foam Of another

MISSOURI STATE NEWS.
Not a Nickel Left.


Stewartsville, DeKalb County, was the
scene a few days ago of a sensation which
shook the quiet town to its foundation,
and caused almost a suspension of BUSH
ness for the time being. 1t was the clos
ing of the doors of the well known Stew
artsville bank of Buck & MeCrosky, and
the announcement of the total collapse OF
the bank as business institution. 1t was
discovered that the firm of Buck 81 Nc
Crosby dissolved partnership on Novem-
Der %, and that the fact was not revealed
to any one until the news of the failure
began to be circulated upon the
streets. AS it is always customary
to give public notice of the dissolution OF
a partnership as soon as it takes place,
the fact that it was not done in this in
stance caused much surprise. The as
signee, John w. Coberly, is well known
citizen of st. Joseph. Mr.. Coberly is a
heavy loser. The assignee went to the
bank for the purpose of opening the vault
and seeing how much money was left for
the victims. His surprise may be imag-
ined when, upon opening the safe, not
single nickel was discovered to gladden.
his eyes. All of the merchants and many
farmers are victims to greater or less
extent, and much suffering will be caused
A number of st. Joseph people suffered
by the failure, and the probabilities are
that the affair will create long litigation.
